8872 pretty full saturday
Jun. 9th, 2007 11:32 pmWoke up bright and early to hit the book sale, but we were waylaid enroute by 2 yard sales - one benefitting local kids charities, and one for the cancer cure walk for life.
At the first yard sale, We obtained a copy of pride and predudice on dvd for $1, and about seven ps2 games (Pac-Man fever is the only one played thus far, but it's my sort of thing... a bunch of cute mini-games played on a monopoly-style board) for a buck a throw as well. Also obtained were bake sale choco-chip cookies, and an old star trek game for the pc.
2nd yard sale - got still-shrinkwrapped copies of rook, snap, and a wooden gameboard for 7 in one (actually 6-in-one, as there are no chess pieces) - Checkers, Chinese Checkers, solitaire pegs, mancala, backgammon, tic-tac-toe. again for a buck apiece. Bhk got a complete works of EAPoe for a buck, too.
3rd yard Sale - I score a ti-85 calculator, bhk gets some sharp nail polish
Book sale, we snag a big ol bag of stuff, including vegetarian cookbooks, some jim bucher / ray bradbury stuff, and some still-usable technology sourcebooks for about $25. That's less than $0.35 a lb, give or take.
We swung by Fabulous brew for medocre coffee and slow service, but the pancakes and home fries were yummy. BHK's Bagel looked pretty tough... it was gnawed rather than chewed by her.
Returned home to dust our loot and peruse more closely - Found out that we were going to miss jimmy's B-day and Grad party due to a schedule conflict. I feel guilty about that - I hope that we can take him out to lunch and goof with him sometime soon to make up for it. Fobbed off those test doritos on Adam - made with lard, so I don't want 'em. I suspect the secret flavor is "double cheeseburger" or the like.
Later, we went to see the DC Divas women's football team crush Boston Rampage - 70 to zero. Had fun shooting the Breeze with TM and her crew. Pictures on flickr, will add to here later. Highlights include cheese thrown into the audience during the 3rd quarter.
